GitHub app badge notification

Chrome extension for showing notifications in a badge when GitHub is installed as a PWA.

Setup

1. Install the extension from Chrome Web Store (not yet available in Chrome Web Store); clone this repo, go to Chrome -> Extensions -> Manage Extensions, enable Developer Mode, click Load Unpacked and select this repo's src folder.
2. Add GitHub as an app. You can do so by following this guide. Make sure to select the option "open as a window".
3. Open the app.

Cross-platform support

The badge should work with MacOS, Windows and many phone browsers, however it doesn't work on Linux (apparently). More details here.
